FBI hunts for 12 man sleeper cell

Boston bombers: FBI hunting 12-strong terrorist

Maybe it isn't over...

Umm, Expat? That's the Mirror. They make the National Enquirer look like the Wall Street Journal. It's a tabloid, not a newspaper.

 

[rdtracing94]

Probably not.

Regardless of source, the idea that the two brothers were not working alone is very reasonable.

Could be, but we don't know anything at the moment and the last remaining suspect is still hospitalised and hasn't been questioned. Is it even remotely possible that a British tabloid knows more than the mayor of Boston, who has stated already that they acted alone? My guess is that the cops and FBI have already managed to get answers to a couple of questions and the mayor knows what they know. Sources DO matter.

You're believing a politician?

I admit to not knowing that paper.

How about the International Business Times?

It seems to me, prudence would be to assume these guys were working with other folks until the facts sorted themselves out.

He says they acted alone, but a pipe bomb was found elsewhere and another person is in custody?

Political figures are notorious camera-hawks, willing to make statements that have little basis in fact, just to return the community to its pre-event complacency. Until all possibilities are investigated and exhausted, it seems irresponsible to discount the possibility of more cell members (although a 12-man cell creates more operational security issues) preparing for additional action. If the investigators were to truncate their probe based on the best-case scenario and another attack was subsequently launched, this board would be packed with experts, excoriating the LE/Intelligence community for not doing its job.

completely wrong, according to many sources on INGO, law enforcement was only searching for 2 persons

 

[Sarge470]

And as they're happy to tell you, they know more than the mopes running the investigation. Oh, to be so wise...

 

[longbow]

Last week is was two guys. Today it is up to 12 people and next week is will be 100's on the run around the country.

I'd have to look for the link, but I read yesterday that a lady friend of the younger douche said he often hung out at an apartment near the campus where he had conversations, in Russian, with other young douches. The article went on to say that three douches were taken in custody after a raid.

I thought according to LE they were looking for 2 people, killed 1 then they were looking for 1

I remember 3 in New Bedford they arrested during the manhunt period. Most of the talking heads that I heard today said they believe others had to be involved.

Apparently they're completely wrong then.

I'm pretty sure no one understands a word that comes out of Boston's mush-mouthed mayor. He sounds like the offspring of Barney Frank and Elmer Fudd.

 

[88GT]

Did they not search the abodes of one or both of the douches?

Questioned and released. Ex-roommates.Local news later on Friday. Happened in New Bedford near the younger douche's college.

Doesn't mean there aren't more aholes here or elsewhere. Just not the 3 that were in the news.
They were actually breaking the New Bedford story when the boat incident started.


On another note, some of you are referencing the mayor of Boston. How are you guys able to understand him without subtitles? ( Unless youhave lived out this way, even then it ain't easy)
